Nutrient restriction, inducer of yeast meiosis, induces meiotic initiation in mammals
2020-05-16
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> From yeasts to mammals, the molecular machinery and chromosome structures carrying out meiosis are frequently conserved. However, the signal to initiate meiosis appears divergent: while nutrient restriction induces meiosis in the yeast system, retinoic acid (RA), a chordate morphogen, is necessary but not sufficient to induce meiotic initiation in mammalian germ cells via its target, Stra8 . He...
